Real talk… it's come to this. Read carefully and know where I stand. I could give two shits about politics and parties. But I do give a truck load of shits about wolves in sheeps clothing. Voting for him is one thing, but holding your tongue because you can't separate person from party lines… ? Remove yourself from my sphere completely and immediately. Don't bother explaining a position. Fuck that! That is all.

Abstraction as a tool for clarity? For a new client brand identity—trying to take the approach of utilizing the actuality of one thing in creating an abstracted take on another. #sketchy

Listen… it's not about some catchphrase, or being overly clever. This city is not a city without people—hundreds of thousands of lives. And as we all know, we don't get it all right all of the time. Shit's tough out here. If you woke up today, got the kids ready, or hugged the significant other, or stopped by the bank, or clocked in at work, guess what—you didn't coast. You actively participated in what makes this city a city worth living in. It ain't perfect and we need a lot of work in a lot of areas, but hey; you don't end a journey with the first step, and progress has never meant you win before you start. So how about this, let's try to see the good in taking the steps? Now I'm never going to spout that "we are all the same and equal" nonsense because that's bullshit and we know it! We are all made of good and vastly different stuff! But the opportunity to make the life we all desire & deserve in this place that we live is what need be equal. Damn straight! So what would happen if we all did a little leaning in the same direction, together, for once? Meh *shrug* but what do I know? #WeDontCoast… we just try a little bit to be a little better, everyday. Because that's all we can do. Love, ya boy -Steve G.

Nothing makes me more proud than seeing the work I do in the hands of people I respect (and like very much), doing amazing work in the community that made me! That's a kind of immortal 360° that I couldn't have predicted growing up on 34th & Grant. The three brands represented all originated from the RDQLUS CREATIVE camp which originated in North Omaha, proudly. No matter where I'm at in this life, no matter where I roam… North O.—forever my home!

"Wait... you said what?! You said that?! " 😜 Chopping it up with Nebraska's Poet Lauriet, Mr. Frank O'Neal at last month's Creative Mornings OMA.

To all those who clown me for freaking out when I see yellow & black… f*ck all y'all, bruh! This ain't no pollen-huffing warm fuzzy—this thing was engineered for mayhem, f*ckin' up your credit, stealing babies, evil deeds and WAR! (For reference; that is a massive black ant on its back). I was still scared just taking the picture and I knew it was dead! #FEAR #ALL #EVIL!
